I just wanted to do something nice for Kelly since she always says hi to me, trying to un-bore eachother every night, and just seems like an all around nice person...
So here yah go Kelly...my ode to Adam Clayton...
This is my FAVORITE Adam story...this is a direct quote from Bono...
"There was a night in L.A. in the early part of the tour when we had a death threat that the police were taking very seriously indeed. Someone had sent the gun license into the U2 offices and they thought he had gotten into the venue. All of a sudden there were all these people on the stage which I really objected to. I never thought that sort of thing would bother me and, when I went out, it didn't. I just laughed it off, like The Blues Brothers - 'We're on a mission from God and we ain't finished yet.'
The second night came up and the cops came up to us just before we were about to go on and said they'd made a mistake, He was coming tonight! "Now we get all kinds of racist jibes because we wrote a song for
Martin Luther King, or pinko jibes because we did the Amnesty International Tour. Wherever you look we're a target for the loony fringe. So the second night, we're on stage and I'm singing 'Pride' thinking, 'If someone is going to do it it will be during this number.'
So I crouched down on the stage, shut my eyes and for a moment the thought of death crossed my mind. When I looked up I just saw Adam standing over me, between me and the crowd. It was a good, good moment."
If that doesn't make you love Adam I don't know what will...
Here is how I picture Adam looking as he stans above Bono with that upside down smirk on his face...like "I dare you to try something..."
*hugs to Kelly*
Now lets have a Lord Adam Clayton Picture post-off...like in the good old days...show us what yah got ladies!
